Because, and this may come as a shock to you, booktubers don't ACTUALLY read books, they just buy them because they like the look of the cover and to fit into the pseud circlejerk community because it's the only thing they can identify with that makes them feel a little niche and special

What's most telling is that even in trolling /lit/ manages to show how little they know about literature. Dostoevsky and Lermontov recommended over Great Expectations is precisely what's wrong with this board. No different than Vonnegut fans reading literature as a gussied-up projection of ones own self.

Dickens is the single greatest prose stylist in the English language. Even Joyce, the only other conceivable contender for that honor, placed Dickens at the apex (Oxen of the Sun).

Know why Pynchon writes such wild bullshit? Because Dickens already took all the good jokes.

Fag here I've had a lisp (not a gay perse, but just general) since birth and its been detremental. I severely detest the fem community, they are complete attention whores and absolute bores, vapid in every aspect. If you tell a guy you aren't into fems you'll be ridiculed and regarded as a self-hating gay. And its all under the guise of "being yourself", look you can bang dudes all you want, once they put that into their personality it's aggravating.
